At age 71, after years of research and personal transitions, author Sharon P. S. Marx dispels the myths and unlocks the mysteries about dating later in life. With wit, candor, and a lighthearted conversational style, Marx urges her contemporaries to get up, get off the computer, and get out into the real world, sharing specific steps that can lead to a personally gratifying relationship at any age.

Marx believes that companionship never grows old and that being alone is a choice, not a consequence of aging.

Her advice? "At any time in your life, you can make a new choice. And when you do, the results can be lovely."
